People migrate for many reasons: conflict, unemployment, instability, climate pressures, and opportunity. That does not excuse failed leadership anywhere, but it also does not justify xenophobia, or violence. South Africa’s challenges will not be solved by turning vulnerable Africans into scapegoats.
Your statement is understandable, but there are several grammatical, punctuation, capitalization, and word-choice issues. For example:
- … far far… should be far, far
- “Intrasingent” should not be capitalised in the middle of a sentence
- “semi-deity’s” is incorrect.. The apostrophe is unnecessary. If plural: “semi-deities”.
- The sentence beginning “People who aren’t even humble enough…” is a sentence fragment. It needs to be connected to the previous sentence or rewritten as a complete sentence.
- “never ending” is usually hyphenated when used adjectivally: “never-ending”
No one denies that states should enforce immigration laws. The problem is when complex issues such as crime, unemployment, failing hospitals, poor schools etc etc are blamed on migrants rather than on policy failures, corruption, and inequality.
If someone is undocumented, prosecute the offence. If someone commits a crime, prosecute the crime. But collective blame based on nationality is xenophobia, not a solution.
@daddyhope What amazes me isn’t that he thinks like this. It’s that so many people choose to follow him. One day, we’ll talk about what that says about the followers too.
We are for the Unity of Africans, we don't believe in xenphobia or acrophobia
The EFF is not built to create divisions amongst blacks, it never has and it never will
Let black people love each other. That's who we are and it won't change
There is NO ONE who genuinely seeks to solve any problem with fellow Africans mobilises us based on tribalism or ethnic hatred:- such a person is cooking raw civil instability! They seek to ruin our country, not fix it!
We know this! We are students of HISTORY! This is how you get a country to FAIL! It is a recipe that imperialists have used for over 200 years, to render Africa completely unstable and unable to run its own affairs without violence and war! This is the only way they manage to extract all the riches found in our soil.
When will you OPEN your eyes: these are not people genuinely resolving an illegal immigration problem. These are people seeking to entrench ethnic nationalism & drive a wedge into the very unity of South Africa itself! They seek national instability!
Let me be CLEAR, as I have always been:
No one MUST ever support lawlessness. Immigration laws MUST be respected & imposed by law enforcement in our country without any fear or favour. In fact, there is no Pan-AFRICANISM in lawlessness. I have said this many times, even when we address large halls in the continent. That’s why Bushiri hates me!
What I will NEVER support is chasing black people on the streets like dogs whilst calling them garbage! No!
I will never agree that the cause of our chronic unemployment is other Africans from our continent. It’s a lie created by those who fail to run our economy, so that you don’t hold them accountable! They just collected 2 trillion in taxes: like every trillion they collected over years- it ends in corruption! TRILLIONS!
They are possibly the ones funding all these marches!
You all have forgotten every detail that comes out at Madlanga- your focus and rage is redirected away from these powerful people who ruin your lives everyday. SAPS generals exposed as the real drug lords, murderers and crooks!
Here is another painful FACT: these spaza shops we are being told to shutdown are in actual fact doing business with South Africans. Poor households generate more income by renting their back rooms and garages. It’s a MUTUAL ECONOMY! The point is to harness it through LAW and ORDER: not destroy it!
How do you march against people you opened your garage for as if you are marching against Apartheid? You were not forced to do so. It is because you correctly benefit & need more help in making it into an even more profitable investment!
Mind you, there is no white man that will ever leave Europe & rent from your township back rooms, or do business in your garage!
Incidentally, when a white man opens a business in the township, it’s called an investment, but when poor small business people from the continent do the same; it’s criminal!
This logic is driven by black self-hate: & it will lead to an even worse outcome- other black South Africans will start being told to only do business where they come from. Never to go into other provinces: or work in those provinces regardless of skills! Simply because of tribalism!
FACT: There is NO Pan-AFRICANISM in drugs and human trafficking. Whomsoever does this, African or not, MUST face the full might of the LAW!
I know you are frustrated! I know it is hard. I too have had a sister brutally murdered, stabbed to death in front of her 4 year old daughter by an undocumented Mozambican man. No one could help us bring him to justice. He simply fled!
If you ever doubt my appreciation of what that means. There it is. I told you! It was all over the news. I WILL NEVER say there should not be DOCUMENTATION of foreign nationals.
No single revolutionary leader who paid in blood for this country’s freedom will ever agree that when there is a problem amongst us, we must resort to hate and violence.
But these ones, who are mobilising today, are men of hate: they are already announcing what is next! It was always what was next! Ethnic domination! They must not succeed! https://t.co/WjmNHALyQK
